Set Part

When the Set Part command is selected in the Parametric Frame Builder Action list box, the settings group for that command displays directly to the right of the Action list box.

The Set Part command manages settings to set parts for all subcomponents that compose a frame. Empty parts and families can be attached to a frame element. And one part can be attached to an entire frame to calculate the quantities of all frame subcomponents.
